Latest data on Groby vehicle speeds

February 2023  The latest figures from the mobile vehicle activated signs on Groby’s roads show that drivers are more likely to exceed the 40mph speed limit on Sacheverell Way than the 30mph limit on Leicester Road and Ratby Road.  This result is probably what most residents might expect. 

Over a recent three week period around one in five journeys at one monitoring point on Sacheverell Way was in excess of 40mph.  Compliance ranged from 85 to 90% at other points on the road.  

Ratby Road speeds were, overall, slightly slower than Leicester Road.  Just under 3% of outward journeys on Ratby Road exceeded the 30mph speed limit, but on the Leicester Road carriageway towards the A46 island this increased to nearly 10%.
